Feb 15th 2026 Amble's Little Shore designated "Bathing Water"
RAW are delighted to share some good news with everyone!
The Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) has formally assessed a proposal for our Little Shore in Amble to be designated Bathing Water and passed it on to the final part of the process – Public Consultation. This is just brilliant. Bathing Water Status gives Public Health Protection through Monitoring, investigation and investment all bound by Legal Protection. This is the very best way to protect any river now and into the future.
We urge everyone to support our Little Shore in the application by clicking on the link below. Every click counts and the consultation is short to fill in:
